You should not rely on or take action based on this communication without first presenting ALL relevant details to a competent attorney in your jurisdiction and then receiving the attorney's individualized advice for you.

If you do not agree, then stop right here, and do not read any further.

It is apparent that there is some dispute over the payment of fees with your prior counsel. You will have to resolve your fee dispute with your prior attorney by paying them, making suitable arrangements for payment or challange the Lis Pendens in court. There is no magic way to remove it.

I would question whether the prior attorneys had the right to place a Lis Pendens on your home. I would strongly suggest that you consult another attorney to determine the legality of that action by your former counsel.
